I knew a guy from work. We work in the same city but not at the same site. We have seen each other for more than a year. He only asked me out for dinner after work once a week but never on weekends including Friday. He never calls me except the day before the day for dinner just to ask me if I want to go. We had dinner and always (no exception) went dutch. After dinner we sometimes went back to my apartment and watched TV together. We have never touched each other not even the hands, although he tried to sit close to me in the couch when watching TV. He sometimes invited me to a few parties hosted by his high school friends in town. He told me he goes to their guy's night out every Monday, which is a gathering with his high school male friends. He is in his mid forty and never gets married. He also told me that he has never had a girl friend. He said the longest dating time with a girl is a few months. We never talk about anything about our relationship, except one time (half a year after we started to do dinners) when I asked if he was ever in a relationship, he asked me how do I think of the relationship between he and me. I said I don’t think we are in a relationship but just hang out together and I am happy with that. I have noticed that he has some kind of close relationship with one of his high school friends, who is also never married and has no girl friend (except that he told me that RECENTLY that friend is dating a woman he met from Facebook). It seemed that they do a lot of things together. Their houses are a few miles apart. And I have noticed that he was excited and looked happy when that friend was around. From all his behaviors toward me and that friend, I sometimes doubted if he is straight. I don’t know how to check on that. What problem do you see in him? How can I find out if he is straight or not?

Sorry about the paragraph. I am not sure if it is good to ask him directly this question. Would that be a sensitive question for a guy? If he is not straight, do you think he can be frank with me about that?
i don't hear any great interest in him on your part so why do you care? he could just be neurotic, have a little OCD, likes to socialize with friends, never met the right person, social skills kind of off...
These days, it seems that men who are homosexual aren't as reticent about disclosing it as they once were. If you would like your relationship to possibly move forward, you need to have an honest, direct conversation with him. If you are looking for a potential husband, you need to know this so that you can move on and not continue to date a man that you will have no future with.
There are people out there that have no desire for intimate contact. I have a friend like this. He's not straight of gay. Sex doesn't interest him in anyway. These people are rare but they are out there.
The other question that needs to be asked is this. Are you sure it's just not you that he isn't interested in. I have a couple of female friends that I've done dinner, drinks and movies with but have never touched them in anyway other than a hug goodbye. Doesn't mean I gay. Just not interested in them....
